AI technology allows for a more dynamic design and manufacturing process and insights allow brands to identify and take advantage of relevant trends. Final Thoughtsĭata driven decisions are becoming increasingly valuable as fashion retailers are tasked with understanding their consumer's wants at a time of rapid socio-economic change and uncertainty. These insights allows designers and retailers to stay ahead of the curve and plan future collections based on hard data insights. Through compiling data on the top selling products of the moment across a variety of brands, algorithms can suggest which styles are likely to be successful going into the future, for example, the algorithm may suggest that a striped bathing suit is likely to be more successful this summer than a dotty one, based on consumer behaviour leading up to this point.įurthermore, by comparing pricing data with demand patterns for individual products or collections, algorithms can predict at which price point a certain collection is likely to be successful for each individual brand. Data firms partner with major brands, to offer insights into the state of the market, future demand and competitor behaviour patterns.

Sales divs of each item are then recorded and internally processed. Upon releasing a new season of clothing, Inditex will send only a small quantity of each product to their stores and e-commerce channels in order to first gauge the customer response to each item before placing any significant order with the manufactures.
